Nestled in the historic heart of Lyme, NH, the iconic "Barn" (Unit #5) at 14 On the Common is a masterfully reimagined architectural treasure blending 1810s heritage with modern luxury. Conceived as a personal residence and built with a "slow art" philosophy, this one-of-a-kind home showcases uncompromising craftsmanship. Stepping through the glass doors from the Village-side patio crafted of red brick and Bluestone you enter a ground floor where the gourmet kitchen is anchored by a striking VT Verde Antique® Serpentine Stone countertop. Throughout the open concept home, structural timber framing by artisan Adam Miller adapts the historic building into a modern sanctuary. History comes alive through repurposed doors, hardware, and built-in bathroom cabinets saved from the original Judge Churchill estate and beautifully paired with custom bathroom vanities topped with wide-pine boards from Lake Morey. Adjacent to the ground floor's three-quarter bath, a study off the dining room provides flexibility for main-level living. The walls boast an unpainted, highly abrasion-resistant veneer plaster finish, offering a rugged yet sophisticated aesthetic. A true centerpiece, the grand staircase features a custom Greek Revival and Prairie-style railing hand-welded by artist Julian McMillan, complete with symbolic coins embedded in each newel leading to the second level primary ensuite bedroom with dressing room, natural wool carpeting and beautiful wooden floors adding rich texture and warmth throughout. The lower level is designed for maximum functionality, featuring an integrated garage flanked by a welcoming entry foyer on one side and a self-contained studio suite with a three-quarter bath on the other. Outside, an expansive cedar deck with tempered glass railings overlooks the serene beginnings of a private Japanese garden. This is a rare, irreplaceable legacy property designed for distinctive living.
